Lillard's quickness is being wasted

Next it's going to be Lillard dribbles to much and I'm just waiting thread.

Yeah I mean we are talking about trading Aldridge now. It amazes me how fickle many Blazer fans are. We just need to complain about something I guess.

I even remember fans complaining about Drexler and Kersey years ago. It is what it is. Thank God they aren't our GM.

Didn't you want Steve Nash last year?

Yep I absolutely did want him. And if the offer was good enough, I would still want him. Not as a starter; but he would be one hell of a bench leader!

And FYI, at the time, we had Felton and Smith as our PGs. Would have been a huge upgrade, IMO.

And he would have sucked on our team, just as he was sucking on the Lakers before he was injured. Nash needs the SSOL offense.
 
I refuse to engage in any sort of critique of his game until we're past the All-Star break ... hell, even then I'm not sure there's much you can learn about what Lillard can and cannot do at this level (in the long term).

There's a lot of sense in this, but OTOH I keep thinking that naysayers will never stop:

He just played at Weber State, We have to wait until he plays against NBA players.

It's just Summer League, We have to wait until he plays in actual regular season games.

It's just 6 games, We have to wait for half a season.

It's just half a season, he hasn't even played a full season yet.

He's just a good player on a bad team, he hasn't even played a playoff game yet.

It's just one series, he hasn't even made it out of the first round yet.

It doesn't count to just make it to the finals, you have to WIN it.

OK, he's a small town guy who deserves to make it into the HOF - but he's no Joe Dumars, he can't TOUCH Joe Dumars!

Some fans haven't learned the difference between constructive criticism and "how fickle many Blazer fans are. We just need to complain about something I guess."
